[Bf-committers] Resizable widgets

[Xavier Thomas]

Just to communicate better the idea, here is an image:

I wasn't tlaking about scroll bar but "notches" to "communicate" that a
widget is resizable.
I wasn't talking about scaling the widgets neither, this would still be
accissible trought "Ctrl+MiddleMouseDrag" and work for the whole pannel.
